From the pile dwelling settlement of Nußdorf-Maurach, Überlingen, Lake Constance. The damp environment has preserved it in good condition.

The Vikings expanded throughout Russia by using the Volga as a highway.

I think the writers just couldn't bear it.

Calling Schliemann and archaeologist is an insult to archaeologists. He didn't care about doing anything but finding treasure and he just dug down, throwing everything important into the spoil heap, until he found gold. And then decided it had to be Priam's gold even though he was absolutely wrong. He did similar things in Greece. He should not be celebrated.

I don't know that you could necessarily develop the wheelbarrow without first having the concept of the wheeled cart.

Wheeled carts are not very practical without draught animals to pull them. And the one place they had animals like that, in South America, llamas and the civilizations that utilized them lived in the mountains where wheeled carts aren't practical either.

They say that Native Americans never developed the wheel. They clearly did. For sick dog skateboard tricks.

I think you would have to be very careful to make sure the roots didn't erode the wall.
